A Publication - Proposal

Sent and awaiting feedback.


Jess Young – Proposal Call 2; A Publication

Currently in my studio practice I have begun work in creating my own book - or a collection of pages - of titled illustrative drawings, each one describing a thought or theme that contributes to the wider motifs of my art practice. This book will exist as a sourcebook, or a list of ingredients - each one existing separately as I search for a way to bring them all together in my art; this project, in a way, dissecting and crystallising elements of my practice and areas of exploration that I have not allowed myself to acknowledge individually.

Proposal

What I propose to include in the publication for call 2 is a collaged image of a number of these drawings, possibly integrating appropriate text. I felt that submitting a single illustration would be inappropriate- in separating a single image from the others, I would alter the intention of the project- but in creating this collage for the publication, I feel I am able to share an element of my practice, retaining a level of vagueness, but in a satisfactorily descriptive manner.
The collage will be made with a combination of manually drawing and printing and Photoshop.
